Splash on's - your favorite Aftershaves/eau de colognes

i would prefer splash on's as the feel is totally different than a spray...any favorites..? any classic drug store colognes?

we have one here by a well respected clothing brand called Raymonds...their Park Avenue line has a standard eau de cologne (100 ml for some $2) meant for scenting towels, bathing water or any similar purpose, including after shave. the composition is - bright citrus with a strong invirogating notes of herbs...done in a very live jazz or eau sauvage style..(no similarity in smell)... the quality is top notch. for $2, it's superb i must say. feels good to splash these on after a bath.....any such recommendations....? preferably not from our typical line of scents...would prefer those obscure, not so famous types..

Two roads diverged in a yellow wood, and sorry I could not travel both and be one traveler, long I stood and looked down one as far as I could to where it bent in the undergrowth; Then took the other, as just as fair, ......

I am loving Caswell Massey's Aura of Patchouli Cologne. My wife got it for me for Christmas, and I just can't quit splashing this on! Really nice smoky/woody patchouli, but with a medicinal edge to it that keeps it very fresh. Patchouli is probably my favorite note in perrfumery, it's so great to have a patchouli fragrance that's not so heavy and overbearing. This is great stuff!

The three Aqua velvas, Old Spice Fraicheur and a bottle of adidas moves AS. I also prefer tumulte in AS version. Last all day long, 10 hrs or so. Is the Colgone series by CdG spashon? Unforgibable and MI should be.

SMN Musk is the only splash-on i own....but i gotta say, the other day i was in a drug store, and tried out a little bit of Brut Cologne Splash on my wrist, and i loved it! LOL. actually i think it was just nostalgia of remembering my father to smell like that when i was a kid.

For aftershave splashes...

Proraso is an excellent aftershave with a first class scent.

Blenheim Bouquet aftershave is fantastic.

But hands down the best one you're going to find is Musgo Real. The scent is not like any of the Musgo Real colognes. In fact, Musgo Real aftershave may be my most-frequently complimented scent. It has better staying power than half the fragrances I own.

Perfumerías Gal, a subsidiary owned by the Spanish fragrance maker Antonio Puig, launched a spin-off of Heno de Pravia, Agua de Pravia.

It is an eau de cologne with typical hesperidic top notes, but with the addition of indolic notes in its drydown. Ingredients listed include Evernia Prunastri (Oakmoss) and Evernia Purpuracea (Treemoss).

Glass bottles containing 150 ml are sold for roughly USD 10 in major local drugstores.

I have a few 'splash ons' in my collection. I must say I'm liking the Brut loving going on up there in some of the earlier posts... definitely a classic splash on scent!! Brut is awesome, but the variants Brut Musk and Brut Oceans are also excellent quality and value with superb longevity.

I also recommend the cheap and cheerful Blue Stratos. Pharos by Alain Delon, and the equally superb designer scent, Hugo Boss (original) are both excellent splash ons I own.

Personally, I enjoy Lynx/Axe scents, that are also splash on, and from the current crop available, you can't go wrong with either Lynx/Axe Instinct or Africa. Cheap as chips!
